So as you know, 2 of my 3 passats have moved onto other places this week and I've had a change..
the last non VW i ever bought was in 1997 and that was a diesel astra for commuting sheffield to leeds every day..
since that car everything i have ever purchased (except for motorbikes and a transit for work) has been a dub
Ever since watching Back to the future and seeing Marty's truck i've had a (to quote the film) 'one day Jen I'll have one of them' want..
research at the time showed it a beefed up rocking hard toyota pick up - closest we could get is the legendary (according to top gear) Hilux pick up
So I've wanted one for ages, could never justify the need for a pick up or spending cash on one..
Anyway, cut a load of waffle short - I decided a compromise was on the cards - and we looked at hilux surfs as it has the size and feel of a huge estate, with the same off road stance as the pick ups.. Sorted
Next up was to sell the dubs - had to be done as I'm getting older and fatter - running round in a slammed dub has stopped being fun!!
so asyou know, earlier this week, both the B3's have gone and have been replaced with....
Now I'm not expecting you all to like it on here - but seeing as I've been asked why I've sodl the wagons thought I'd post up
still a dub man as I've still got the B6..
plans for now, ride as is..
but as and when funds allow, a 2-3" lift on the body, 3-5" suspension lift - huge tyres and get some dirt on it!!
oh, and before anyone says it, the snow last year has nothing to do with it at all as i didnt get stuck once in the B6..
